button.alpha... is there an alternative?

[Defyeler]

I just wish to make my buttons invisible upon certain actions.

for example if i clicked on button A, I want to hide Button B..

I normally would do this..

buttonA.onRelease = function() {
buttonB._alpha = 0;
}

I know alpha can kill system performance if the flash movie relies heavily upon it. Is there an alternative? I just want to hide my button's visibility, not its functionality.

[librium]

buttonA.onRelease = function() {
buttonB._visible = false;
}
I think this should work

Well, if you want to make your buttons invisalbe...
Why dont you try

buttonA._viable=0

I dont know if this is what you want?
